ASUU wanna reap where they didn't sow. ¡RABBISH¡


As for the fresher talk, we knw it's after the second semester exams(i.e 3-4 months after the strike) but, does that mean we should be silent and dormant?

otokx: Did you guys read the letter from ASUU to GEJ? Did you see anywhere where salary was mentioned? Lets be factual in our debate & be enlightened.

Obilouchechukwu: Hello sir,, if ther ar to be 2 year1 students, wht harm could it cause? Should we xpect hardship?..is ther any closing date for round up of freshers?.

It is only in Nigeria you see the President sitting for 13 hours with union leaders on any issue and at the end of the day, there will be no courtesy from the union.
"While the President was expecting feedback from ASUU leaders within 72 hours, they kept him in suspense for two weeks or more.
"And instead of feedback on where the talks stopped, ASUU leaders came up with fresh conditions when even during the negotiation, they admitted that some of the clauses in 2009 agreement cannot be implemented.
"The President is human. He now has every cause to believe that the strike action seems to have the backing of external forces seeking to bring his administration down. That was why he decided to come down hard on ASUU, too."

The leaders were awaiting the President’s invitation on the three conditions they tabled for the almost five -month strike to be called off.
The conditions are:
• commitment from the President that any review or reconsideration or renegotiation of the 2009 Agreement will not substantially
affect the Agreement which is the cause of the ongoing strike;
• immediate payment of all outstanding salary arrears and allowances of varsity teachers without victimisation;
and
•a written commitment from the President that the Federal Government will commit
N225billion annually to the funding of universities for the next four years.
ASUU’s letter was delivered to the Minister
through its Liaison Officer in Abuja.
But the minister has described the demand as outrageous.
Wike said: “I will have to see Mr. President to see how the government can go about this
development, which is not favourable. It is outrageous. ASUU is now making fresh demands and this will definitely need further discussion.”

nbright: Many lecturers are even against ASUU... Only them and God knows what they are afraid of..

collinselvicz: now we r talkin , media n blogs av been carryin n feedin us with babish, sir otokz, how did u get a picture of the letter

Swt mother: Uniport is nt fair at all jus take a look at d money involv 4 jus registration,acceptanc fee 30k,accomo 20350,schul fees 85k....chai!! Na crime say we get admision?

Onogueks: @Otoks, ASUU neglected students by not consulting them before going on strike. they claim to fight for our welfare yet they hold secret meetings which they didnt inform us. ASUU demands to be paid their salaries when they didnt work. then where are the salaries of students that have been at home for months? Fg hasn't been fair to ASUU and nigerians. in the same vein ASUU hasn't been fair to nigerian students. wish ASUU will pay our 5 months house rents wasted, then i will support fg to pay them too

Nerosoft19: u can neva fight n win d government.. Its impossible to kill a mosquito using a gun. kuddos to ASUU for d fight for better education but ryt now d whole fight seems just futile. Its a good fight but its been fought in d wrong way... Ryt now jonathan needs d youths for 2015 so this moves jus seems to b anada strategy to please dem n get dier support.. We all want to go baq to schl n he has sent us baq to schl. ASUU on the oda hand hav been too rigid, to get something from a politician u need to b political... ASUU has been adamant, religious leaders, parents even madmen hav appealed to dem for the past five months but still nothing.. This could b frustrating i really dont blame d goverment.... All i see now is betrayal, bcoz most of the lecturers who are in one voice now come 4th of december will jude d union n go to work. ASUU is just a union, dey dunt employ, dismis or pay anybody i bliv, those that wise will comply wit higher authority

ellyrichy: So tell us why the President is using coercion now. As for me I think the mastermind is Nyesom Wike, just come and see the underdevelopment in our university and this govt officials would send their wards to the best Yankee school with a lot of allowances with our countries wealth, please shine your eyes and don't be deceived by govt propaganda. Didn't they make militants billionaires and now they currently have their own private jets. What stops govt from committing and signing this already agreed document. Government is playing a psychological game on your people, cos one's bitten twice shy.
